Re: So Many Questions, Grasshopper

Greetings: Actually this is one of the simplest, quickest, and cheapest things to test: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=92697 Hmm, I'll definitely look into this, might be work it to find out. First you need to be aware that there's an Idle Throttle Stop screw, whic...

I use to import containers of scooters from Japan. I have brought over 400 tact(AF09) into the USA and never seen that carb set up like yours. And yes they are pretty much like the aero 50 with a few differences. That is a sweet color also, I have never seen that color. That is one of the ealier ta...

Cool, thanks for that. I guess I'll try finding a little foam filter to add to mine. I guess the previous owner lost it or something. .

Do you maybe have a link to that thread/forum? Maybe there's some other helpful information.

No, I mean that there's a possibility that the little rubber thingy, with 2 hoses, had a replaceable filter that's missing. The Express had this. A Honda shop could look at the microfiche and answer with certainty. Now that you mention it, your right, my buddy has an early 80's express that has thi...

A filter? What exactly do you mean? The scooter's airbox came with a dry, spongy filter already (although I cleaned it up and soaked it in oil like the manuals say). Or do you mean an aftermarket filter? Actually, I've seen quite a few people's scoots with those aftermarket air filters, like the K&a...

I have considered it, but it sounds like bystarters aren't the most reliable, and I'm not 100% sure it'd be compatible with my scooter. Besides, it's been starting up more smoothly the last few times with a bit of a primer and a few kicks. - I was more just curious as to what exactly this rubber thi...

So I've done some research and found a few Japanese websites, and found some pics for reference: http://page.freett.com/AB07/R209.jpg http://www.honda.co.jp/factbook/motor/TACT/19800900/image/006-006.gif It might be tough to see from the small pictures, but it doesn't look like I'm missing any parts...

Re: Aeroid Tact

Greetings: That's an attractive scooter rat thar! What year is it? Man--o, there are more differences than similarities to the US '87 Aero. Air box, cooling shroud, even the belt cover all different. I'm not exactly sure what year it is, but according to the seller it's a 1991. And yeah, there are ...

Yeah, I've tried experimenting with it a bit. I've tried removing the cap and covering the entire face of it with my hand while kickstarting it. It does start up a bit more easily, and you can feel suction against your hand coming from the tubes - meaning that if it's left uncovered, air freely flow...

Honda Tact (Aero 50) Help - What's This Rubber Thing?

Hi everyone, new to the board here. I recently bought this old Honda Tact from a neighbor as a fixer-upper. Here she is: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/nexentt/IMG_2267.jpg As I understand it, this is a Japanese version of the Aero 50. It's almost identical in many of its components, but the...
